Naming the custom categories internally is not possible at the moment.

Use the focused and unfocused category images for the names in the home screen.

Gade maybe as idea - you could add the info what is behind the path of the categories e.g.

So you see what you actually switch Smile
P.S. Yes Paint Skills! Rofl

That's not a bad idea. And great Paint skills, btw! Wink

The thing is that most people won't understand what those codes mean.
People not using the forums might be confused by the extra codes.

And it will not be consistent with custom category names in Skin Settings > Backgrounds and Skin Settings > Home > Category Submenu.

I'll think about it...

It's already supported.

But the new post play screen will probably not be skinned for Rapier, as I don't use it and have deactivated it in the addon settings. I prefer the "old" nextup notification during playback.

PR's are welcome though, if someone else wants to skin it.

The addon's default behavoir has changed.
If you don't want the fullscreen window, but want the "old" notification during playback, do this:

Add-on manager > My Add-ons > All > Nextup Service Notification > Configure > DISABLE Show postplay screen


Anything add-on related, ask in the add-on thread.

I have a question about widgets. We view on a TV, and the containers, font, and thumb are just too small to be useful. Is there any way to increase the size of the widgets, possibly to take over the whole screen? We only have widgets on the right side because we don't use Videos, TV Shows, etc. Instead, we have custom nodes so we can categorize our shows. Ideally, we'd love to just have a full width set of 'recently added' posters on every screen.

I've heavily modded the skin already, making a green theme and increasing the font size in a lot of places, adding the show name in a few views where it only shows episode name, etc. Maybe if someone could point me to a place to learn to edit the widgets? I've given it a shot but apparently haven't gone backwards far enough to find the container that is limiting the sizes.

Alternatively, if anyone knows of an addon that does this, we'd be grateful!

Hi nokaoi.

Have you tried the different font sets?

Rapier currently have 5 font sets.

Settings > Interface > Skin > Fonts

To edit the widgets for custom categories, you have to edit includes_HomeCustomWidgets.xml

The containers depend on which type of widget you use.

Remember, that all custom edits to the xml's are overwritten each time the skin is updated. And I strongly recommend keeping the skin updated at all times.

What you can do, is copy the contents of the skin.rapier folder to a new folder called ex. skin.rapier.nokaoi and give the skin a new id and name.
That way you get all updates for Rapier and can copy them to your own skin.

I'd really love to see your edits and mods. If you have the time, you can create a seperate thread for this with some screenshots?
If your edits are relevant for the general public, I might include them in the skin.

No matter what they are, I'm always interested in seeing skin mods. Smile

There's no add-on for this.

Would anyone miss the Wide List View and Fanart View?

I'm considering getting rid of some views to speed up performance.

Based on this poll in this thread, not many people are using them.

I don't will miss it, but the poll isn't represantive cause just a hand full of people use this forum Smile
